01 SELECTED WORK
PROTOCOLS / 2025—2026
ZK IDENTITY · STELLAR
Reusable zero-knowledge credential infrastructure. Users prove claims locally; protocols verify them on-chain without accessing personal data.
PRIVATE SETTLEMENT · STACKS
Intent-based SIP-010 settlement that reduces direct sender-to-recipient wallet linkage through signed intents and relayer execution.
CONFIDENTIAL PAYMENTS · STELLAR
A privacy-oriented payments layer for transfers, payroll and escrow, built with commitments and protocol-native cryptography.
FHE · PREDICTION MARKETS
An encrypted prediction market with private positions, confidential collateral and a full resolution and dispute lifecycle.
PRIVATE MARKETS · ALEO
Private binary and categorical markets with encrypted positions, oracle voting, disputes, payouts and refunds.
CONFIDENTIAL PAYMENTS · ZAMA FHEVM
A privacy protocol with encrypted balances and amounts, confidential payroll and escrow, balance proofs, and stealth transfers on Sepolia.
ON-CHAIN COMMITMENTS · MONAD
A group accountability protocol where people stake MON on deadlines, their Circle verifies delivery, and missed commitments fund a shared Pot.
BITCOIN PAYMENTS · STACKS
A Bitcoin-native merchant payment gateway for sBTC, STX, and USDCx with on-chain invoices, reusable payment links, receipts, and Chainhook notifications.
PROOF SYSTEMS · FIRST PRINCIPLES
An evolving collection of from-scratch implementations connecting finite-field algebra to FFTs, multilinear polynomials, sumcheck, GKR, and KZG commitments.

I’m Samuel Dahunsi—a mathematics graduate and engineer focused on turning ambitious cryptographic ideas into systems people can actually use. My work spans sumcheck and GKR research, confidential protocols, on-chain verification, SDKs, and developer education.
I currently work as a DevRel Engineer at QuikDB, where I translate complex infrastructure into clear documentation, demos, workshops, and better developer experiences.
